I really want to get a pair of skinny jeans to wear with boots but I am not sure if I can. My thighs have become thicker since being pregnant and I am not sure if they are to thick for skinny jeans.
How heavy is to heavy for skinny jeans? When I stand my thighs tend to touch, is this to heavy or am I just being way to self conscious?
Also can someone recommend a brand that they like and feel good in?

Re: Skinny Jeans
oh girl, if thigh touching was a sign of "too heavy" then many of us would be screwed!!!
I love my Gap 1969 skinny jeans. They are skinny, but not super tight-painted on look.
Old Navy Sweetheart cut Skinny Jeans.
I'm in the same boat (ETA:) with not only the thighs, but also the hips and the butt, and I tried these on the other day and I was amazed.

Skinny jeans are for any size! I especially love them for fall with a longer top and tucked into tall boots!
My favorites are from American Eagle.

I'm an extreme pear shape and my thighs definitely touch, but I still wear skinny jeans. I think it's all about what you wear them with. On me, they wouldn't look good with a short and fitted top, but with a longer tunic or layers on top they look fine.
I highly recommend jeggings for under boots, too. They don't bunch at the knees, like even the skinniest jeans sometimes will.
YES! Esp. Old Navy's Rock Star jeggings -- they actually clasp like real jeans, and have pockets to boot, and are tres comfy!

As long as you feel comfortable in them, buy them! I don't think there's such thing as "too heavy" for skinny jeans.
I only own one pair - they're from JCPenney, not sure on the brand though. They aren't painted on which I like, the ankles are a little more loose.
